Venezuelans to collect signatures against anti-Caracas U.S decree

This week venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has asked government supporters to collect ten million signatures demanding U.S government to revoke its decree that labels Venezuela as a threat to its security.
Maduro's initiative has been supported by anti-imperialist demonstrations and a National Assembly's enabling law granting him special powers for nine months to legislate in defense of the homeland's security and protect the Venezuelans from Washington's sanctions.
Meanwhile this conflict divided citizens into two blocs, the government supporters who vehemently reject U.S meddling and opposition fans who back the U.S sanctions as they say back the Washington’s claim that the government violates human rights.
Although diplomacy between the two nations has been diminished, government supporters claim their signatures and demonstrations will force the U.S government to repeal such orders.
In this context, socialists say they plan to gather signatures from citizens around the world as evidence of international solidarity.
Despite the venezuelan opposition justifies foreign sanctions against Maduro's administration, the increasing US threats against Venezuela seem to unify millions of revolutionaries and the socialist government to actively campaign for their nation's self-determination and the immediate revocation of what they call Obama's imperialist decree.
